Many yogis and other spiritual teachers teach that loving yourself is the quickest way to feeling better. But how do we do this if we are feeling lost,  lonely or over extended?

In my Intro to Let It Go Yoga courses,  when I  ask my students to share the ways they love themselves,  people are often stumped. They can’t think of any ways that they love and honor themselves as they give to everyone else with no time left to nurture themselves.

Let’s all change that and view Valentine’s Day as a day to love and honor yourself. It certainly couldn’t hurt to say and do nice things for yourself. So why not give it a go.

This year be your own Valentine, saying: “I Love You-Thank You”  to yourself.

It was fun thinking of all the many ways that I could be my own Valentine! Ways I could practice being kind and loving to myself with things that I really enjoy doing.

Pick a few from my list or think of your own, something that you’d love to do. Pick a date and add it to your calendar.  Make a date with yourself and enjoy yourself. You deserve it!

Here are some ways to get the ball rolling…
